They tell you that the length is 7 inches and that it is 2 inches more than the width therefore you can conclude that: length = 7 and the width = 5
you can plug the values given into the formula listed below:
A = lw
A = 7 x 5
A = 35

12 beats are played in 30 seconds
You would have to divide
30 / 2.5 = 12 beats

Answer:
x = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
The outer and inner triangles are similar, thus the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is
=
, that is
=
( cross- multiply )
12(x - 3) = 8x
12x - 36 = 8x ( subtract 8x from both sides )
4x - 36 = 0 ( add 36 to both sides )
4x = 36 ( divide both sides by 4 )
x = 9
Her next step is to repeat the last process of drawing those two arcs. However, they will be mirrored since she swapped endpoints.
Check out the diagram below. Figure 1 is what she already has. Figure 2 is what happens after completing the next step. The red and blue arcs intersect to help form the endpoints of the perpendicular bisector. I used GeoGebra to make the diagrams.
1 cm = 45 km
x cm = 135 km
135/45 = 3 cm
distance between the towns on the map is 3 cm.
i hope this helps :)
